森林是"地球之肺",森林资源的重要性不言而喻。日本、美国和瑞典3国不仅森林覆盖率高,而且森林法发展历史悠久,其成功经验值得借鉴。文中总结3国森林法基本架构,结合我国社会经济和林业发展现状,提出关于我国《森林法》修改的几点建议:明确可持续发展的立法精神、制定《国有林经营管理法》、构建森林计划体系、加强公众参与。

Forests are the lungs of the earth, and their importance is self-evident. Japan, USA and Sweden are the three countries which not only have high forest coverage, but also have long developed their forest laws, whose successful experiences are worth learning. This paper concluded the basic framework of forest laws in the three countries, and proposed several suggestions on the Forestry Law revision in China based on China＇s social, economic and forestry development condition, including defining the legislative spirit of sustainable development, developing National Forest Management Act, establishing the forest planning system, and strengthening public participation.
